Please can anyone advise me, I waw silly enough to fall for 'your bill wasn't paid, please update your account details ' which I stupidly confirmed.

It was swiftly followed by check the EE account and all was fine, I froze my card immediately. 

Do i need to contact my bank, EE or both as they now have my details ? 

Thankyou for any advise

Hi @Nicky108.

Thanks for reaching out to us here on the Community!

You've definitely done the right thing in cancelling your card; one of my family members once fell for a similar scam, so I know all too well how worrying this is. 

If you haven't already I would definitely reset the password for your account, and if you use this for any other accounts in your name do the same thing with them.

I would definitely give our customer care team a call too, that way we can review your account at our end and make sure this is secure and hasn't seen any suspicious activity.
